Lizzo’s MTV Performance Was Embarrasing

MTV (an initialism for Music Televison) was founded in 1981, exclusively consisting of music videos and live performances of Americas favorite artists. Since then, MTV has strayed from it’s musical roots to cash in on the reality show money. However, music fans have responded and MTV is finally listening.

Meet MTV’s newest music-based television show, “Wonderland”. In Season 1, Episode 8, Minneapolis rapper and co-host, Lizzo performed her song “Phone”. Consisting of heavy bass and snare, the instrumentals were basically non-existent. The lyrics, even worse.

Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh? How I’m ‘posed to get home? Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh? How I’m ‘posed to get home?

If their goal is to play a mixture of repetitive, thoughtless, uninspiring, far from intelligent noise, I guess I don’t see the different between this or “Teen Mom”.
